A couple ready for adventures

57, Retired

63, Retired

We are an independent couple enjoying continued Australian travel and adventures and we have the opportunity to offer our time to people who require assistance and care for their pets at home whilst they are away on their own travelling adventure. We have the utmost respect for other people's property and pets.
I have spent my life caring for others in my previous roles as a public servant, homemaker and mother and being responsible for our family pets throughout those years (a very smart and friendly German Shepherd for 12yrs and then to our very energetic and clever Milly, Jack Russell/Terrier, for 14 years) and Ian has a background in mechanics, public service work in health and safety and being an all round great bloke, thoroughly enjoying retirement. We both have our Covid Vaccinations up to date.
We grew up in country New South Wales on farms and were surrounded by animals for the first ten years of our lives. Mainly cats, dogs, mice, sheep & cows.
We are "newish" to the south coast (made the move from Canberra in 2020) and continue our travels further afield, usually with our camper trailer in tow. We take pride in keeping our environment clean and tidy and will leave your home exactly as we are instructed to do.

Cathy and Ian were absolutely amazing, I can’ not recommend them enough. They truly went above and beyond, they kept us up to date with everything and photos, the house was spotless when we got home, our animals were extremely happy and a detailed note of the day to day stuff was left.

We can not thank you both ... MORE

Cathy and Ian are the perfect house sitters and cannot highly recommend them enough. They took great care of our dog and rabbit and left our house very clean. We received regular updates and came home to wine and flowers which was most appreciated. We were so grateful to have such reliable and caring people stay in our home and look after our animals.

Cathy and Ian were absolutely wonderful house sitters. Could not recommend highly enough. Loved the pre-visit and updates whilst we were away. Our dogs were well cared for, as was our house. Our whole family loved coming home to many surprises including new teaspoons, craft presents for the kids, fresh milk, delicious cooking and a sparkly clean house. Sweetest people you could ask for. Thank you so much Cathy and Ian!

Ist time having house sitters for me I am thrilled to bits that I joined this Organization. Cathy and Ian were a delight. They went way over 100% in all aspects. My home was kept immaculate, even the lawn was mowed. Communication was excellent and one very happy and contented cat. I arrived home to a warm house and amazing home cooking was left for me plus eggs, milk and muffins. A lovely long letter with all news of Keisha the cat and the house. Also flowers and a sweet little card with a ... MORE
